at Time Warner will
construct a giantic
Mickey Mouse and piss
all over it. Screw you,
Disney. You may own
ABC, but we’ve got a
little company maybe
you’ve heard of called
<u>AOL?</u> And kudos for
basing your entire
primetime schedule
on a f**king game show.

Kathie Lee Gifford: I don’t know the damn answer, Reege. Okay? So just shut your trap and get me one of my lifelines.

Regis Philbin: I guess you’re going to call your husband, Frank Gifford.

Kathie Lee Gifford: No. Little secret about Frank – great in the sack, but not a bright man. Let’s call Gelman. That little fruit knows everything.

Regis Philbin: All right, AT&T, get Gelman on the line.

[phone rings and Gelman comes on the line]

Gelman: Hello?

Regis Philbin: Gelman, this is Regis. The next voice you will hear will be that of Satan!

Kathie Lee Gifford: Ha ha! Reege, I really don’t like you.
